Photographer : JPL After traveling more than 1.5 billion km (948 million mi.), the Magellan spacecraft was inserted into orbit around Venus on Aug. 10, 1990. This mosaic consists of adjacent pieces of two magellan image strips obtained in the first radar test. The radar test was part of a planned In-Orbit Checkout sequence designed to prepare the magellan spacecraft and radar to begin mapping after Aug. 31. The strip on the left was returned to the Goldstone Deep Space Network station in...

Photographer : JPL Range : 40,000 km (24,8000 mi.) This picture of Triton is a mosaic of the highest resolution images taken by Voyager 2. The mosaic is superimposed on the lower-resolution mapping images taken about 2 hours earlier in order to fill in gaps between high-resolution images. The smallest features that can be seen on the images are about 0.8 km (0.5 mi.) across. The terminator (line separation day and night) is at the top of the picture and is centered at about 30 degrees north...

In January 2011, researchers from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, Calif. tested a future aircraft concept model. The model, called AMELIA (Advanced Model for Extreme Lift and Improved Aeroacoustics), has a 10-foot wing span and is 1/13th scale. It was tested in the National Full-Scale Aerodynamic Complex. AMELIA was designed as a 100-passenger regional cruise efficient, short takeoff and landing airliner. Photo Credit: NASA Ames Research Center / Dominic Hart

Photographer : JPL Range : 8.6 million kilometers (5.3 million miles) The Voyager took this 61 second exposure through the clear filter with the narrow angle camera of Neptune. The Voyager cameras were programmed to make a systematic search for faint ring arcs and new satellites. The bright upper corner of the image is due to a residual image from a previous long exposure of the planet. The portion of the arc visible here is approximately 35 degrees in longitudinal extent, making it...
